What was your "first dance" song?

[InsertSomethingMotivationalHere]

Newly engaged so I am over-thinking all these things at the moment...!
Me and my DP are not lovers of attention but do want to do a "first dance" at our wedding. It might sound an odd choice but I think "Fix You" by Coldplay would be great - lyrics aren't the cheeriest but it's so emotional and has the lovely climactic ending.. is this a rubbish choice? What did you have? We don't have any significant suitable songs that lend themself to the task!!

Inxs - never tear us apart.

Congratulations OP!

We had Let it Be Me by The Everley Brothers. Love the first line 'I bless the day I found you'.

I wanted Who's Sorry Now by Connie Francis, just to see my Mum's face but DH gently suggested it might not be a good idea....

Amazed by Lonestar

Come On Eileen. 1st marriage. 1983. Our reception was a disco.
Second marriage, 1995, was a pub lunch and my best friend who was a folk singer sang for us. No dancing.

My first, my last, my everything Barry White-great lyrics with an upbeat tune so not too icky and we just twirled and twirled! 🥰

Very underrated song. Successful at the time but I hardly ever hear it on the radio nowadays. I listen to it/watch the video on YouTube quite often.

This is lovely

Sade-by your side 🥰 apparently it's a bit sad but it's a song we both love

Mine is so cringy. We didn't have a "song" we didn't even want to have a first dance. We picked a song that was popular at the time. All of me loves all of you. 8 years later I still can't listen to it!!

True - Spandau Ballet

U2 - With or Without You

This was my choice if it ever happened

You Make it Easy by Air. The lyrics meant so much.

We had songbird by Eva Cassidy

beautiful song I need to play it now

So Amazing by Luther Vandross followed by Soul Provider by Michael Bolton.

This kiss by by Faith Hill we eloped and married in Vegas and this was the song the was playing at The Bellagio fountains they day before we got married so was perfect song for our party when we got home and told everyone else.

Talk tonight by oasis, we met abroad so quite fitting

We had The Book of Love by Peter Gabriel. Congratulations on your engagement 💕

Whitney Houston-will always love you

Surprised Shania Twain hasn't been mentioned yet.

Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls

We got married after 11 years and two dc. Our first dance was "Still the One" by Shania Twain. The lyrics were quite fitting!

Be my baby by The Ronnettes.

Ours was Especially for you by kylie and Jason. I did want Glen Maderos Nothings gonna change my love for you but DH said no.
